An NYC museum has a 3-foot-deep pool of sprinkles, and the photos are amazing

The Museum of Ice Cream, a pop-up museum dedicated solely to the history and making of ice cream, opens its doors June 29 in New York City. Maryellis Bunn, the museum's founder, says the idea came about as a fun dream she had as a child. So she rented out a display space in New York's Meatpacking District for a week to create a temporary exhibition devoted to ice cream.

Even though the creators call the space a museum, it's arranged more like an art gallery with a few eye-catching exhibits — like an immersive demonstration that changes your sense of taste and edible balloons that are made to order— that encourage you to experience the show first-hand.

The museum's most fun exhibit, however, is a three-foot-deep pool of colorful sprinkles. Although the show's sold out, you can still experience the sticky-sweet fun by scrolling through the images below.
